V699 Oph: secure superoutburst of a new SU UMa-type dwarf nova! Dear Colleagues, Tom Krajci's most recent observation has confirmed the rebrightening reported by Rod Stubbings. The light curve now clearly displays 0.25-mag superhumps! This finally confirmed the long-suspected SU UMa-type nature of this dwarf nova!! Owing to the limited coverage, we can't tell the exact superhump period, but the profile suggests that the period seems to be shorter than 2 hr. Further observations are most strongly encouraged!! This star is apparently the best target of opportunity!! Regards, Taichi Kato VSNET Collaboration team
